Mary Longstreet Hello, father. Has anybody seen my brand new husband?
Judge Longstreet Don't tell me he's deserted you already.
Mary Longstreet Yes, it looks as if, the brute.
Mr. Wilson Forepaw's muddy. No mud on hind. Dry leaves mixed with the mud. Red must have been digging somewhere in the woods.
Noah Longstreet Have you any idea what for, Mr. Wilson?
Mr. Wilson A body, I think. Meinike's.
Mary Longstreet Mr. Wilson, I've never... I've never so much as even seen a Nazi.
Mr. Wilson Well, you might without your realizing it. They look like other people and act like other people - when it's to their benefit.
